ok, before I ask I know it probable has been posted before, but I am very tired of searching and reading.


I have a home theater system, and i would like to improve it by using a "car" sub(audiobahn) but I also need more power(obviously)to make that work.
So i have a boss amp here are the specifications
4 CHANNEL OPERATION
2 OHM STEREO STABLE
LOW AND HIGH LEVEL INPUTS
MOSFET POWER SUPPLY
2000 WATTS (500W x 4)
VARIABLE HIGH AND LOW PASS CROSSOVERS
BRIDGEABLE
NICKEL PLATED RCA INPUTS, LINE OUTS
SIGNAL TO NOISE RATION BETTER THAN 105dB
FREQUENCY RESPONSE 5 Hz - 50 KHz (+/- 3dB)
CHANNEL SEPARATION: BETTER THAN 90 dB

Now all i need to know is home to power it in my house. But also if you can give me a link or product name I should buy.

Thank you

Look around for computer power supplies, preferably something that will match your vehicle's amperage.

You could also post this in the car audio forum, where you will get a lot more responses.

Why do you think you would get an improvement by using a car sub? Or is this conjecture?

A computer power supply isn't going to deliver the current required. You'll need a high power rectifier to do it. Not worth it, IMO.
